I'd really like to make it a ramp truck but we'll see.

Ask me how I know. I have a 26 yr old that I started with the bug when he was about 5! I have NO regrets, but currently 4 old pickup projects and several offroad projects between the 2 of us. Some confusion of who drug each one home!

My 3 older kids are all into old cars and trucks. I probably am in for trouble but it should be pretty fun.

That would be a nice ride. Plus the way the fenders open to allow engine work.

I have been thinking the same thing. My crew cab chassis is the same as a 1 ton frame. I just need dually spindles and hubs. Then adapters wheels, time, money, more money.

I've been trying to figure out a good way to connect a sleeper to the cab but still have the corners of the back window. I may just get over that "rare" wrap around back window and just weld it up with sheet metal. I'd really like this thing to look like a slammed semi. We'll see if semi wheels are in the budget. I may have to use the 16" Alcoas I have on my 95 F-350. I even thought about putting the dodge body on the ford chassis. It has a good 7.3 powerstroke. But I'm more of a Cummins guy so I don't know about that.
